Iranian cargo ship Shabahang sank in the Caspian Sea near Azerbaijan’s Lankaran port on July 26, Iran’s state-run news agency IRNA reported.
The Azerbaijan State Maritime Administration reported that it received a distress signal from an Iranian cargo ship after it had been involved in an accident. The ship carrying a shipment of tiles was en route from Iran’s Anzali port to Russia’s Makhachkala, when it crashed in an area about 37 km from Azerbaijan’s Astara port.
The Deputy Head of Iran Ports and Maritime Organization Jalil Eslami told IRNA that the Shabahang sank as water began to fill the ship.
Two helicopters and coast guard of Azerbaijan were deployed for a rescue operation. All nine crew members, who were still on board the vessel, were rescued. The crew consisted of seven Iranians and two Indians.
these things happen – hardly worth the bother.
Glad the crew were rescued. I wonder what was the cause of the accident?

Off topic, but, owing to tankers, Iran and the UK, posting comedy headline of the day. Remember, Russia, a nuclear triad nation, who has weapons and systems, which makes all that the NATO member states, combined, obsolete and only spends $47 billion on defence. The UK spends $46 billion on defence, but, scrapped everything useful or sold it on to poorer nations. Then you have the other nuclear triad nation, with the largest military and most expensive, but, not the most powerful, and their $717 billion, defence budget. Notice, Russia, out of the three is the only one that does not use ‘middle men’ and what a difference it makes.
How does the UK waste so much money on defence? Remember, we traded in our Harriers, part exchanging them for the F35 for the new aircraft carrier. Only, when will she get the planes? Will it be before or after, they repair the recent set of pipework leaks?

Headlines to make you laugh.
Ministry of Defence blows £15million on simulator for RAF Tornado jet which top guns don’t even fly anymore Defence officials wasted £15million by purchasing simulator for retired RAF jet The simulator was based on the Tornado GR4 jet which was retired from service The figures are part of a £100million bill taxpayers have been forced to pick up The waste ranges from front-line armoured vehicles to ‘unrecoverable expenses’

UK Navy Lacks Defence Capabilities Due to ‘Pathetic’ Size of Fleet Amid Gulf Row – Report… https://sputniknews.com/military/201907271076376543-uk-navy-lacks-defence-capabilities-gulf-row/
Not forgetting, the UK Government, of any day, Labour, Conservative, Lib Dem Coalition, stripped bare the Forces of weapons, systems, man-power, in order to sell the EU Army to the masses. To show we cannot defend ourselves. Article 42 Lisbon Treaty, EU Army, where all weapons, systems and Forces will be handed over to Brussels. May, has signed off on this, whether we are in or out of Europe. She has already sold military bases to the private sector, in preparation for the move to Brussels.

” I wonder what was the cause of the accident?”
An unidentified source has informed me that the Helmsman of the Iranian cargo ship was rather jaded after ‘ A night in the tiles ‘ , AM :)
I can vouch for at the alleged time and place, she was with me.
Oh, I have suddenly remembered that we sang “we love to be beside the seaside” both together for some reason.
Ah Hah, I knew that Brit must have been involved. The cunning plan was simply brilliant and yet another example of Derring Do intertwined with fucking around on a boat, Al.

You are the epitome of a Wise Old Owl , Al. Bravo :)
Very nice, thank you.
I have not heard “the owl and the pussycat” in a good few decades……. it took me back + shed a tear.
PS What the fuck do you mean “old” ?.
Older than 30. Unless one has self-identified as being younger than the accepted calculation of Western time , I suppose :)
Time. If I want the time, I look above at the weather….. do not tell me you wear a watch….
I do wear a watch, and this year will be keeping to Summer Time for all seasons :)
Good on you. If you get my age, you can pretend the sun is up there all year long as well !!.
Haha. were you the gate? Back in the days when you could laugh and just enjoy life, before PC took over.
I know, the good old times.
Sad, but, glad it was a proper accident.
Must admit, when jaded after a night on the tiles, so glad I am not piloting a tanker. Although, do excel at embarressment haha.
I have visions of you as a sleek pussycat frolicking on the roof tops :)
Haha, like the image. Gates and trees, but, not rooftops. Back during the old teenage years.

Will delete comment, in a short while.
Oh to be a gate, :)
Haha, I preferred climbing trees or ropes. I was the only girl in the year who could climb the ropes in PE, but, always ruined the sheer joy, by sliding down them. Guess rope burns are not a good look haha, plus painful. They stopped the girls using the ropes in PE, owing to nobody apart from me managing them. Spoil sports.
We know why you slid down them, I had a dog that did exactly the same with on grass – yes a girl dog.
That is bad girl, just bad.
let us hope it is nothing more than that
We really are shite.
Didn’t used to be, then along comes ‘Common Purpose’ and the rule of ‘Bagel Butts’.
Basically it is slavish subservience as a vassal to the US. Still spend all the money so that the native US- allied comparador class can benefit but not allow the UK to have any freedom of action without a US greenlight. Disgusting!
Be aware that all these errors in MOD are solely due to money deals behind the curtains.
Don’t mess with the IDF baby :-]
funny nose, a jew?

Copy this and use it every time you run into one of those PARASITIC HASBARAT-TROLLS:
Taken from UNZ Review, article, “Use of TERMITE by Louis Farrakahn was exactly right” – “Arthur Koestler, (a person of the Jewish Faith –My, Freespirit emphasis ) is quoting from Maurice Maeterlinck’s Life of the Termites in order to establish in his readers’ minds a salient political point. Not only does Koestler find the termite to be the most accurate metaphor for society’s decay, but his other book, The Thirteenth Tribe, debunks the claim by the white Caucasian Ashkenazi Jews that they are Jews at all! His careful, scholarly, and historically accurate 1976 study found that the white people we think of as Jews—the Netanyahus, the Jonathan Greenblatts, the Alan Dershowitzes and the rest of them—are imposters with no genetic connection to the holy land or holy people of the Bible; they are not even Semites! Koestler proves that their Caucasian tribal ancestors converted to Judaism sometime in the 8th century. So the charge of “anti-Semitism” constantly leveled at Blacks and their leaders has no actual meaning at all.” https://www.unz.com/article…
A Nation can survive its Fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive Treason from within. An Enemy at the Gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his Banner openly. But the Traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his Sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the Traitor appears not a Traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his Victims, and he wears their Face and their Arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the Soul of a Nation, he works Secretly and Unknown in the Night to Undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body Politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is Less to Fear….
